Acupuncture For Athletes

Colleen is an excellent acupuncturist and her skill, knowledge and professionalism is top notch. She has a strong and dynamic knowledge of the body, a calming presence, exceptional touch, great intuition and excellent skill in finding and releasing trigger points in problematic muscles and structures all over the body. She was instrumental in helping me avoid surgery and rehabilitate from a chronic hip injury. The injury required needling in very sensitive, deep and elusive trigger points, and despite the discomfort that some of the needling caused, I always had confidence that I was in great hands. I also see Colleen to treat my shoulder which flares up a few times a year, and after 1 – 2 sessions with her I am usually good to go. I am a massage therapist and personal trainer and thus have a strong appreciation and high standard for excellence in healthcare and bodywork, and I have the utmost respect for Colleen and her work.

I suffer from chronic neck pain brought about by sitting in front of a computer every day, all day, for years on end. The ONLY thing that I have found which gives me lasting relief has been Colleen who I try to see every few weeks.
I went in as a skeptic but after one session I was hooked. This is not, in my very limited experience, «traditional» acupuncture with a needle here and there far away from where the pain is. She really gets in there where the discomfort is and the muscles react! Clenching and releasing, clenching and releasing.
Hurry up and go to her… when I win the lottery I’m hiring her full time.
